Powered by Hyper-V: Exchangepedia virtualized!

by Bharat Suneja

Finally, it was time to bid adieu to the endearing Dell box that served Exchangepedia for >4 years with all of its might (psssst… that means a 400 Mhz. PIII processor with 256 Mb. RAM.. :). Time to leave the world of phsyical servers, and move on to the virtualization world!

Today the site was moved to a Hyper-V VM, running Windows Server 2008 and IIS 7. Yes, just like microsoft.com, it’s now “powered by Hyper-V”.

If you have trouble accessing it, please let me know. For sporadic access issues, or any missing pages (some files may not have copied over from the old server… ), please leave a comment, or email me at info at exchangepedia dot com.
